Hero up! In the latest animated film from DC Entertainment, a troupe of superpowered pets – voiced by an all-star cast led by Dwayne Johnson – bands together to rescue the Man of Steel.

Superman has finally been caught by his arch nemesis, Lex Luthor. What the baldheaded supervillain doesn’t know is that Superman’s dog and best friend Krypto, who shares all of his abilities, is here to save the day. Joined by a team of resourceful shelter pets – including a hound with super-strength, a turbo-charged turtle and a pot-bellied pig that can turn giant – Krypto ventures forth to retrieve his intergalactic owner from Luthor’s clutches and protect Metropolis from harm.

Directed by Jared Stern – co-writer of The Lego Ninjago Movie and The Lego Batman Movie, and showrunner of Netflix’s Green Eggs and Ham – DC League of Super-Pets features an impeccable cast of A-listers, including Johnson, Kevin Hart, Kate McKinnon, John Krasinski, Natasha Lyonne and even Keanu Reeves. Parents and guardians are sure to enjoy this computer-animated action-comedy just as much as the kids, so suit up and heed the call for this special MIFF 70 Family Gala presentation.
